Actually, I think this sounds more like the "package" goal if you're talking about composing a WAR. I've never used the "install" goal to move files around like you're describing, always interpreting "install" to mean installation of this artifact into a Maven repository. However, the more conventional meaning of "install" -- say, as a Makefile target -- does sound like what you're describing. > This is starting to sound like that > maven-dependency-plugin/maven-antrun-plugin solution I was talking > about Yes, the dependency or maybe the assembly plugin could help, but note that the maven-war-plugin can do a lot of this file copying and unpacking stuff as well.¹ > Yeah, I know about Equinox and have played with Knopflerfish a bit, > so felix is an ASF sponsored OSGi implementation, sounds great! > > Thanks for all your help Steve! No problem. Sorry to have over-explained the OSGi frameworks, but it is good to hear that you've already started experimenting.
